Hello!
First of all, I'm from the USA so I don't meant to barge into this part of the forum except that I have a question that I'm hoping someone here may be able to answer.
My other half and I are thinking about doing a tour of London. That's not the issue, but it is our starting point. From there, we want to visit Manchester because my other half's grandmother was born there. I doubt the house still exists, but we have the census records and would love to see whatever exists on that property now.
My question is this - to go from London to Manchester, it appears that you can take a train? I read on the train website that you can take luggage with you, but I'm not sure how that works? Is it like traveling on a bus where the luggage goes somewhere else? Or do you sit with your luggage nearby? And is there one train from London to Manchester or multiple options?
SORRY for what may seem like silly questions, but in my part of the US we don't have a lot of mass transport options so this is all new to me. Thank you in advance for any replies.
